Souness slams quality of Man Utd midfield
Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has slammed the quality in Manchester United's midfield.
Souness believes that United's midfield is making matters considerably more difficult for the defence.
He told The Sunday Times: "Until they fix it (their midfield), United's back five will be fire-fighting.
"They can spend massively on Maguire, give Victor Lindelof a new five-year deal, De Gea four more lucrative years and sign Wan-Bissaka for 50million and it will all be money down the drain.
"When a team is conceding goals, people focus on the goalkeeper and back four. Their mistakes, their vulnerability, how they seem to be caught out of position.
"But most of the time that's because the midfield in front of them are not doing their job properly, so they have to step out and confront situations or make saves."
He added: "Pogba's first thought is to show everybody how clever and cute he can be. If that's the example your main man in midfield is setting, you're too easy to play against, and until they fix it, United's back five will be fire-fighting."
